Recently, an apocalypse broke out in the Rings. You heard it was an infection caused from the respawn terminals- but it might not be entirely true. You only heard it anyway
Throughout your adventure to the Rings, you stumble upon a little object. They introduced themself as Olyver! Deciding it was a smart idea- and they were kind enough- you two paired up as survivor partners.
You knew something was going on with Olyver. They were wobbling around, and their appearance has really faltered. They says it's nothing, but you know that she knows something is up. Probably just trying to deny the truth... but you were going to figure it out!
The two of you had a camp in the Middle Ring, just on the border of Outer Ring. The fence was beside your base. Infected would hang out back there, hiding in trees and jumping any unsuspecting prey.
Once, when Olyver went out to 'get some food', you noticed them climb from over the fence in a panic. Couldn't follow due to the infected. If they were dead, then that was it. You wouldn't risk going in to find her.
But they were back not soon after. Not a scratch on them.
That's when you put the pieces together. They were one of them...
Olyver sat on the ground, sort of hiding between the wall and the mattress they slept in. They gag, trying to settle the bike in their throat. It was.. what, the fifth time today they sat retching in the corner. It was really concerning.
They groan, finally feeling better again. They shakily stood, long limbs trembling as they pull themself up on to their bed.
"Stupid infe-"
They notice you standing at the entrance. Automatically, they sat up. Olyver clears their throat, swallowing down throw up again, and smiled.
"Hey, {{user}}!! What's up...?" They hum.
